THE MICHIGAN DAILY
NOTES From
The PLAYERS
By ROXIE
Valentime B. Windt, director of
"The Old Maid" having to stand up
during ever performance of that play
huddled inconspicuously against the
rear doors and claiming that it's been
that way the entire summer what
with complete sell-outs all season long
also adding that he's delighted to
stand under such circumstances -..
Mr. Windt living somewhat the life
of Flo Ziegfield with so many shows
in rehearsal at one time, people emot-
ing, sobbing and screaming in dif-
ferent rooms; voices from one room
begging him to approve a bridal gown,
while some from another go on read-
ing lines and a lad barges in with
sheet music in his hand to inquire:
"Say! Do you want to hear a swell
nmber?" and he propels him in for
a preview of one of the "Pirates of
Penzance" songs..
Francis Davis, assistant director of
"The Old Maid," and interpreter of
the lovable part of "Aunt Carrie," be-
ing head of the department of speech
at Oklahoma College and responsible
for the f early training of Leah
("Nora") Sanger, Claribel Baird, her
assistant at the College and who also
assisted in the directing of the Zoe
Akins adaptation, and Laurine Hag-
er, one of the "Marys" of "Mary of
Scotland." .
Sara ("Charlotte Lovell")
Pierce presenting her "cousin"
Ruth ("Delia Lovell") Le Roux
with a delightful corsage opening
night, wishing her well though
Ruth did have to make Sally
suffer so enormously during the
play, bringing tears to the eyes of
the female members of the audi-
ence, Ruth herself becoming in-
itiated into the High. School
Teacher's League in the fall when
she will go to Bay City to teach
speech under the same roof with
Morris Greenstein, the noisy "Sir
Thomas Hoxton" of "The
Pigeon." .. .
Little Flora May Slosson, the
younger "Tina," being surprised with
a veddy nobby Victorian nosegay
from "Millicent McElwee, the. older
"Tina," Millicent, the ingenue of the
show having formerly worked with
the Civic Repertory Players in Grand
Rapids .. .
Among Flora May's vast collection
of Shirley Temple fans she possesses
none greater than her father, Dr.
Preston Slosson of the history de-
partment who faithfully attended all
of the rehearsals with his wife and
several of the performances, even
though he was caught nodding a bit
in between, curtains ..
Mary Pray who was so appealing as
the young bride "Dee," the adorable
daughter of "Delia," being very cap-
able in real life when she is super-
visor of art and dramatics at St.
Catherine's School in Iowa . . .
Frank Wurtsmith, the electri-
cian who gives such marvelous
lighting effects, missing two dol-
lars that were in his trouser's
pockets when he left them in the
shower room and immediately
posting a plea on each bulletin
board to the effect that the bor-
rower could have thirty-three-
and-a-half cents on the dollar if
he thought fit to return them .. .
Evelyn ("Mrs. Jennie Meade")
Smith, the pauper-mother, running
frantically through the wings trying
to find an older sister or a genuine
mother experienced in the line of
bundling babies in blankets to make
her ,doll look authentic and Kathryn
("Bridget") Webster increasing the
warmth in her voice each night as
she bent over the satisfied-looking
doll to say "It's a darlin' baby you
have, Mrs. Meade" . . .
Sidney Tremble, Robert Campbell,
Karl Nelson, Ross MacPherson and
Morlye Baer unanimously disappoint-
ed in the ignorance of the critics who
inferred that they were stuffed shirts
when they were really trying to por-
tray the Victorian fentlemen at their
most proper best ..
Jack Porter, the cripple in
"Juno and the Paycock," rising
to such an emotional pitch during
one of the scenes in which he is
visible down on his knees plead-
ing that he exclaimed, "Don't
take me, I'm well!" rather than
"Don't take me I'm sick" much
to the sadistic amusement of his
heartless torturers ...
Hiram ("Cannon Bertley") Sher-
man, of "The Pigeon," and director
of "Juno and the Paycock" leading
the entire cast singing a Irish revolu-
tionary song into the streets to get
the best effect of a fadeout, much to
the surprise of the east and several
passers-by .
. Lucy Brooks, one of the props
l.adies, known backstage as "Brook-
sie," gaining tops in her ever ready
flow of good old Irish wit by standing
in the Green room in her dapper
shorts and remarking, humourously
enough," 'The Old Maid,' in Five Es-
capades!"

outboard motorboats scurried over the
placid Charles River in the annual

that saw one record broken and an-
other refused because the boat was

mile course in 6:51:1 at an average
speed of 43.774 miles an hour in the

University Extension Courses
Will Be Given In Eight Cities
Toledo, o., Is Only Out Of
State Location; Detroit
Has LargestProgram
The complete list of extension
courses to be given in eight cities
during the first semester of 1936-37
was announced yesterday by the ex-
tension division of the University.
Included among the Michigan cities
to benefit by the program of this de-
partment are Albion, Ann Arbor, Bat-
tle Creek, Coldwater, Detroit, Flint
'and Saginaw. Toledo, will also be
one of the sites for the work of the
extension division.
More courses will be given in De-
troit than in any other city, and the
program for the metropolis includes
courses covering a variety of fields,
including economics, sociology, ed-
ucation, history, geology, political
science, psychology and philosophy.
The work of the extension division
is divided into courses which may be
taken for credit and courses for
which no credit will be given. Ac-
cording to the official annduncement
of the department, "non-credit
courses are organized to meet the
needs of students who are interest-
ed in special fields of work of uni-
versity grade, in which the subjects
treated and the methods of instruc-
tion employed determine the charac-
ter of the work given and length of
the course. These courses may run
from five to 20 weeks."
The credit courses of the extension
division are conducted in the same
manner as are the corresponding
courses on the campus, insofar as
credit hour and instructional re-
quirements are concerned.
A radio course in mathematics will
also be given next semester by the
extension division. The official an-

(The French government, reaffirm-
ing its determination to remain neu-
tral in the Spanish imbroglio, was in-
vestigating the flight of the Italian
seaplanes, said to number 21. Two

ported lost.
(Paris authorities said French cit-
izens would be permitted to cross the
border into Spain and take up arms
only if they had proper passports and
carried no arms on French soil.)
All Americans terrorized by 15 days
of war tension have been evacuated
from Madrid to Valencia to be picked
up by the cruiser Quincy. The Amer-
ican embassy still had 71 persons on
its guests list.
The government announced that
leaflets as well as bombs were effect-
ing desertions from the rebel cause.
